    Nix had a nice putback, but his days are numbered.

    I’ve grown to hate SL ball…if you’re not a guard or point F, u might as well be PJ Tucker on offense

    Nix isn’t good enough to miss 4 straight free throws.

    No way a player with Smith's talents can shine with our garbage PGs. He needs a CP3 type, who sets the table for everyone.

    I figured we'd see at least that. if not some pin downs, staggered screens, post ups. just get him some shots.

    but like I said this is a pickup game and those plays take organization.

    I thought I'd get a lot more tyty PnR actions too...

    Pretending this half didn't exist... everyone trying to do too much and not playing with any flow.
    The whistles not helping either. Once you see the Rox playing with some energy, they get a call. Ugliest half of "reffing" I have seen in a while.

    Banchero looks very comfortable with the ball in his hands.

    He looks like a scoring machine. I get the Melo comparisons.

    OKC was able to do it with Chet, why can’t we with Jabari? Having Giddey helps, but JC thinks he’s AI when it comes to SL

    dudes will throw up a runner over 2 or 3 guys before passing it to an open man

    I'm noticing this, too.

    Also, Nix is playing as if his spot on the team isn't safe (it's not) and Christopher as well (it is). Really annoying when they feel the need to show out, when it's the rookies that really need to get some burn.
